We ordered smoothie bowls because we thought it would be interesting to try. I got the Reese's latte bowl and my husband got the pb &j bowl. We each tasted both and ended up trading bowls. It felt like we were eating ice cream for a meal. It was surprisingly delicious and very filling. I assumed I would be hungry quickly but it held me all afternoon. It was a fun meal. I'm not generally adventurous I'm trying new things but I'm glad I did this time. They also sell bikes and camping equipment. They are a coffee shop and a bar too. Very fun, eclectic place.

The moment you walk in, you get that warm "local crowd where everyone knows everyone" kind of atmosphere, and our server was absolutely sweet and attentive. They have a very few decent vegetarian options on the menu. I ordered the black bean burger,, and it was excellent, tasted incredibly fresh and had a perfect, satisfying crunch to it. The fries were also good. For dessert, we tried the deep-fried cookie dough.. It was okay, just a bit too tough on the bite for my liking. Overall, it's a fantastic local gem with a great relaxed vibe, friendly service, and fresh food. Definitely worth checking out!

It was my first time having oyster with apple vinegar (?) and I like it better than salsa! Had to order a second.

The deep fried ice cream is much smaller now but still yummy. I have never had a bad meal. Last visit was the Taco Salad for me. Loved it.

Again a fantastic local restaurant that has great dining potential for most. A great experience that not many in the area come close to.

We met Sonny the owner and he was a fantastic host and tour guide to the city. We enjoyed the beers and the company so we decided to come back for dinner.

We drank some more and Sonny finished us up with a round of little beers on the house. We plan to come back for a Rootbeer Float after they put it on the menu and hope for a chance to meet Mr. Clement, to be healed of many of our nagging getting old ailments.

He even wished my mom a happy Mother's Day before taking our order, which was a nice touch. We started with the Street Corn Nachos as an appetizer, then ordered a pulled pork sandwich and a grilled portobello mushroom sandwich, both with fries on the side (an additional $4 each). This was an excellent place to bring my mom since she's vegetarian, and the restaurant had plenty of vegetarian-friendly options. The food was excellent, especially the nachos -- the queso was amazing. The restaurant also gives you a lot of customization options, like swapping chips for fries for an extra $4 or adding protein to the nachos for an additional charge. That said, while the nachos were really good, they were still $18 without any protein, which honestly felt overpriced for chips, cheese, and vegetables. We came during lunch service, and overall the food, service, and view made for a great experience. However, it is definitely on the expensive side. Most entrees seemed to range from around $20-30. Still, if you're willing to spend a little more for quality food, generous portions, and a great atmosphere, it's definitely worth visiting.

I like to keep it fresh up in here. The thing is, the prices for the bourbon were a touch overpriced, but the cocktails and wine were decent. That's the reason for my decision, but I think if you're in the mood for whiskey or bourbon and you're on Mackinac Island, then this is a good place to find it. They have a large variety of many different brands. I didn't get any food -- just popped in for a cheeky drink. The bar area is a nice place to sit, enjoy a drink and contemplate your visit to the island.
